Are you offered one option or two options?
Some critical illness insurance plans offer only one option for coverage.
Your only option is a plan that pays benefits for various conditions. They typically include cancer, heart attack and strokes (the big 3).
Obviously an organization that has critical illness insurance in it’s name encourages you to protect against these real risks.
But we recognize that having options is a good thing. So is saving money.
A cancer-only option costs about 1/3 as much
Today, some insurance companies offer two choices (or options). They offer a cancer-only option.
There can be some significant reasons to consider this.
Firstly, you will save. A cancer-only plan generally costs about one-third as much.
